Violence and the Mimetic Unconscious, Volume 2
Nidesh Lawtoo
Representations of violence are said to have subliminal contagious effects, but what kind of unconscious captures this imperceptible affective dynamic in the digital age? In volume two of a Janus-faced diagnostic of the cathartic and contagious effects of (new) media violence, Nidesh Lawtoo traces a genealogy of a long-neglected, embodied, relational, and highly mimetic unconscious that, well before the discovery of mirror neurons, posited mirroring reactions as a via regia to a phantom ego.

Violence and the Oedipal Unconscious
Nidesh Lawtoo
Representations of violence are often said to generate cathartic effects, but what does “catharsis” mean? And what theory of the unconscious contributed to rendering this concept so popular that it reaches from classical antiquity to the digital age? In Violence and the Oedipal Unconscious, Nidesh Lawtoo reframes current debates on (new) media violence by tracing the philosophical, aesthetic, and historical vicissitudes of the “catharsis hypothesis” from antiquity to modernity and into the present. Drawing on mimetic theorists from Aristotle to Nietzsche, Bernays to Breuer, Freud to Girard to Morin, Lawtoo offers a new genealogy of the relationship between violence and the unconscious.
